I imagine your instructions to the model: "Show me your best profile, and tilt your head to match that nice leaf over there."

Another winner, Glenn!

Awesome photo, Glenn. This is really beautiful. I particularly enjoy the color gradation of the bird.

No clue about wildlife photography or indeed birds, but that bird is very pretty! Love the colours.

That's a beauty Glenn, especially considering the amount of light you had to work with.

Another great photograph. I am jealous… I've walked in a lot of Australia's national parks, we have some beautiful parrots and finches. I've never managed to capture them. Come down and show me them online.

Cheers,

Yet another marvelous bird photo! I was not surprised to see some photos credited to you in the Audubon bird app I have on my phone.
